Grading: The total score for the course is computed with the following weights. There are two sets of weights, one with iClickers and one without. Your score will be computed both ways and the higher value will be used.
Weight set 1:
| Online quizzes | 40% | Online homework | 15% |
| Final Exam | 30% | Discussion worksheets | 10% |
| In-lecture iClickers | 5% |
Weight set 2:
| Online quizzes | 43% | Online homework | 15% |
| Final Exam | 32% | Discussion worksheets | 10% |
Note that this means that iClickers are optional. If you do the iClickers (and get a high score) then they will replace some of the quiz and final exam scores. If you choose to not do iClickers then your score will be computed using the other course components.
